I play trombone in the school band, and I've played piano for about 9 years.

And yes, I can play video game music.

Ok, here's my instruments:

On the left is my Squier Bullet. Great guitar for punk music, just because of how it looks.

In the middle is my Fender Stratocaster. Best guitar that i've played.

On the right is my Jazz Bass.

Also, in the background you can see a Yamaha electronic keyboard, and on the very right you can kind of see my cheapy acoustic, my brother's Squier P-Bass, and my Dad's '77 Strat.

I've played piano for about 10 years (maybe 11....honestly I forget

...I think it's 10, though).

I'm pretty good, and have gotten 3rd prize at the The World Piano Competition in Cincinnati :O. Still, my passion is in composing music, not playing it (well, more so in composing than playing). I improvise a lot, too....like, hours a day

I can play alto, tenor and baritone saxophones, but all i own is an alto. The first time I played a baritone sax, I was barely big enough to reach all the keys.
I guess I can play alto sax good, my band director didn't seem to like me leaving the marching band...

Hey mine isn't a eal paul, but some new pots, caps, and a set of seymour duncan pearly gates pickups outta fix that...

I tried playing it at best buy and thought it was a good-enough body and neck, I pretty much accepted that they would have to be replaced, but that was me beign extremely cheap...

I want one but they're too expensive, good ones at least.

Triton you should totally bend that Casio!

I really have no idea what my electric is. It's 17-18 years old, but still sounds great. And it has strings that are about 10 years old!

I've been trying to play Six, by All That Remains. If you think it's hard on GHII, just looking at the tabs will make your head spin.
